yad ābadhnan dākṣāyaṇā hiraṇyaṃ śatānīkāya sumanasyamānāḥ | tat te badnāmy āyuṣe varcase balāya dīrghāyutvāya śataśāradāya ||1||
What gold the descendants of Dakṣa, well-willing, bound on for Çatānīka, that I bind for thee, in order to life (ā́yus), splendor, strength, to length of life for a hundred autumns.
नैनं रक्षांसि न पिशाचाः सहन्ते देवानाम् ओजः प्रथमजम् ह्य् एतत् । यो बिभर्ति दाक्षायणं हिरण्यं स जीवेषु कृणुते दीर्घम् आयुः ॥२॥
nainaṃ rakṣāṃsi na piśācāḥ sahante devānām ojaḥ prathamajam hy etat | yo bibharti dākṣāyaṇaṃ hiraṇyaṃ sa jīveṣu kṛṇute dīrgham āyuḥ ||2||
Not demons, not piçācás overcome him, for this is the first-born force of the gods; whoso bears the gold of the descendants of Dakṣa, he makes for himself long life among the living.
apāṃ tejo jyotir ojo balaṃ ca vanaspatīnām uta vīryāṇi | indra ivendriyāṇy adhi dhārayāmo asmin tad dakṣamāṇo bibharad dhiraṇyam ||3||
The waters' brilliancy, light, force, and strength, also the heroic powers (vīryà) of the forest trees, do we maintain in him, as in Indra Indra's powers (indriyá); this gold shall he, being capable, bear.
samānāṃ māsām ṛtubhiṣ ṭvā vayaṃ saṃvatsarasya payasā piparmi | indrāgnī viśve devās te 'nu manyantām ahṛṇīyamānāḥ ||4||
With seasons of summers (? sámā), of months, we [fill] thee, with the milk of the year I fill [thee]; let Indra-and-Agni, let all the gods, approve thee, not bearing enmity.
